There is a distinct lack of new ideas coming through Hollywood that really bothers me. They keep reviving old trilogies or series with the hopes of pulling in people through the movie's name or reputation.

What is striking is that I think most people don't read the reviews of the movie before they go, to see if it's worth $10 a person. Maybe they are trying to fool themselves that the fifth installment of Die Hard will be as good as the first.

Remakes and revivals like this drive me nuts, but the hope of the movies being just as good as the first installment is what slowly drags me into the theater. Not this time!

Every action movie of the past 15 years has the same formula, combined with Michael Bay school of special effects. The absurdity of this movie is staggering when you boil it down and start poking wholes in the plot and the realism of this movie.

While I understand this is a guilty pleasure people have, as well as standard fluff for meatheads, this movie will rot your teeth. People see these movies for the afformentioned reasons, but I think they also see them to relive the movies of yester year, when John McClane was trapped in Nakatomi Plaza with bad guys and an ex wife (talk about awkward!). While the faces are the same, the quality is not. Slap the "Die Hard" title on it and squeeze this turd onto the big screen and pick the pockets of the people who crave a nostaligic experience.

Sometimes sequels like 'Die Hard' are better off dead. Star Wars, Indiana Jones and shows like Star Trek Enterprise are prime examples that movies and shows should end to leave a good taste in our mouths. Not force us to eat s***.

You need to relax. I saw a review for "Stand Up Guys" that was 1-star. Any review is subjective. We saw the movie and would have rated as 2.5 - 3.0 Stars.

I love the "Die Hard" series and will spend the money to see it. I really don't think that anyone is thinking that the current installment will be as goood as the original. People go to movies because they think thay might like the movie in and of itself.

Of course reviews are subjective. I ranted because that's my opinion. If you are content to sit in a theater and clap gleefully at one liners and explosions for two hours, then by all means, fork over your money.

However, if you feel like opinions like mine need medicating, then may I suggest that you stop eating so many paint chips from antiquated houses. I know they are sweet and delicious, but they have candy for sale at the theater, you silly goose.
